Details: SUMMARY: Update on Tracer Study and Cartridge Filter DETAILS: Scott submitted his tracer study results on May 10th. They ran one test with the redwood tank full and one mostly empty. Before running the second test, Scott glued a cap with a slit in it onto the inlet pipe so that it will spray the incoming water on the top of the standing water in the tank. This should assist in reducing short circuiting somewhat.
The number calculated in the Tracer Study arent accurate until we can measure how fast the water is being pumped out of the 490 gal tank that precedes the redwood tank. Scott will check that. ACTION NEEDED: Scott will measure the time it takes for the pump to empty the 490 gal tank when it moves it to the 10,000 gal redwood tank.

He will also make sure that Steve Gestalt is working quickly to order the correct cartridge filter and housing and get it all installed before the end of the month.

They still need to go through a quick plan review as Pete has made clear on numerous occasions to both Steve Gestalt from Allways Pure Water and Scott.
